Editorial Letter by Jessica De Vault Hale

Skincare is Self-Care In recent months, the world was practically turned upside down. Thanks to COVID-19, our lives have taken a completely different turn and has, for many, brought on a world of stress and frustration. Whether you were consumed with how you’re going to pay your bills due to lost wages or want to look your best without your regular salon visit, everyone has had to make some adjustments. Our country is attempting to return to some sense of normalcy, but the reality is, things may be offkilter through 2021. To stay sane, we’re seeing that many people are embracing the art of self-care. Some will choose to rest more to offset their stress. Others may decide to pamper themselves at home (see our Feature story on page 36 to see how you can capitalize on this trend). Skipping makeup and choosing to embrace our natural beauty is also a trend worthy of taking advantage of. The state of your skin is often a mirror of your health and what you feed your body. By taking more time to invest in its upkeep, you’re essentially investing in your self–care, too. That’s why I believe the Skincare & Cosmetics edition couldn’t come a day sooner. Helping your customers take care of themselves, beyond their usual beauty needs, will prove to be beneficial in the long run. You may already see the shift in the focus on skincare and our health. So use this as an opportunity to create a self-care section in your store to cater to this growing interest. Not sure what inventory to place that special section? Check out the Marketplace column on page 10 to get some ideas. Jessica De Vault Hale EDITOR

MARKET PLACE

Top-Selling Skincare

When people come to your beauty supply stores, they aren’t just looking for hair care products. Skincare is just as important as hair care. That’s why it’s good to keep a few top-sellers in stock to ensure your shoppers get what they need. Here are 12 products to add to your inventory.

Lotion Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula is a fan favorite because it’s specially formulated to relieve dry skin with quick absorption. It also creates a protective barrier that locks in moisture for up to 24 hours, making this a must-have for any beauty supply store.

Hair Remover Skin Lightening Cream Whether it’s an old scar or dark hyperpigmentation on the face from acne, the African Formula Skin Lightening Cream can really come in handy to lighten unfortunate spots on the body. This cream is also great for liver spots, freckles and other blemishes.

OTC Beauty Magazine October 2020

Your shoppers are always looking for faster, more efficient ways to achieve their beauty goals. With Nair Hair Remover Lotion, you can skip the razors and end up with smooth, silky legs without all the fuss.


Cocoa Butter Some will argue that cocoa butter is nature’s perfect moisturizer, and they may just be right. Shoppers have long been a fan of the emollient qualities of cocoa butter. That’s why Cococare 100% Cocoa Butter is a top seller. The moisturizer hydrates dry skin and even prevents stretch marks.

Electric Nail File Why go to the nail salon when you can do your nails at home? Thanks to the J2 Electric Nail Care System, you can now file, buff and shine your nails from the comforts of your house.

Facial Hair Remover Not everyone is willing to venture into a waxing salon these days. Even though hair removal is essential for many, some choose to bypass the waxer and remove their hair independently with the J2 Facial Hair Remover. This device removes hair instantly and pain-free. It also comes with a built-in light for microscopic precision.

Multiuse Oils There are so many benefits to using oils in your skin and hair care regimens. You can use the oils on their own or mix them into your favorite beauty products to boost efficacy. Carrying a wide variety of products like this Hollywood Beauty Oil display gives your shoppers a chance to pick and choose their favorites.

Shea Butter Shea Butter will always be popular because it’s a multiuse product that can be applied to skin and hair. The raw TAHA African Shea Butter is perfect for dry skin, eczema and minor burns. It also acts as a sunscreen thanks to its rich content of VItamin E & F.

Coconut Oil Is there nothing coconut oil can’t do? This wonder oil can prevent dandruff, and it works as an excellent moisturizer. It also prevents dryness and flaking on the skin. The OKAY Pure Naturals 100% Coconut Oil is a great oil to offer your shoppers, as it is free of silicone and parabens.

Knowledge to Know

Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment

Now Broadly Available To Drive Your Textured Hair Sales Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment has a captive audience and is OTC’s best-kept secret. Ask any beauty supply owner who stocks it whether they can keep it on the shelf, and they will tell you that they do their very best.

Retailer Results Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment is specifically formulated for textured hair. Results from a top account for this year to date (past eight months) show a 30% increase in same-store sales. Units are up over 27%. Alternatively, promotion dollars are down by about 30%. Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment has a blend of fine oils (including Coconut, Sweet Almond & Avocado) and natural herbs. Soybean Oil is also included, and it is an unsung hero for moisture retention. Naturally Curly shared in April 2018 that soybean oil’s main asset to hair is moisture retention because it is full of good fatty acids, manganese, and vitamins.

Textured Hair/Highly Textured Hair Wearers Are Plentiful Over half of Black/African American consumers classify themselves as having coily or kinky/highly textured hair. Textured hair is characterized as needing more moisture to maintain healthier hair and help with optimal styling. This increases the motivation for textured/ highly textured hair wearers to seek products that are formulated for them for their various stages of styling and for versatile styles. Kuza® is excited to introduce to some and reintroduce to others our proven quality, “hard-working” products, many available since 1979. Kuza in Swahili means “flourishing (of a tree), to make grow, lush”. Kuza® Konscious Beauty™ is focused on creating “hard-working” products that promote healthier hair and glowing skin. This is especially important for the textured hair wearer and dryer skin owner, who seek to create their own unique styles, 24/7. Kuza® 100% Pure African Shea Butter and Jamaican Black Castor Oil have no sulfates, parabens or phthalates. Kuza® hair dress and Apricot Scrub have no sulfates.

wearers want, and without the ingredients, they don’t.

The Truth About Hair Dress/ Hair Grease Tonya S. Lane, Cosmetic Scientist, shares great education on CurlyChemistry.com. Tonya shares the Perfect Seven Hair Protecting Oils. In her healthier hair styling method PMP - penetrate, moisturize, protect/seal (similar to the LCO method -liquid, conditioner, oil), Tonya recommends the top three products which provide the best coverage to protect/seal in moisture: 1) Hair Grease (petrolatum); 2) Shea/Mango Butter; and 3) Castor Oil

Tonya S. Lane, Cosmetic Scientist says, “Kuza® 100% Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment is wonderful for curly, coily and kinky hair. It seals in moisture for the many textured/highly textured hairstyles we love to wear, and it does it affordably. The truth about hair dress/grease is that it is the best way to seal in moisture.”

The interesting thing about the numbing strategy is that when you numb your “bad” feelings such as uncertainty, vulnerability, doubt, and fear you are also numbing your “good” feelings of joy, peace, and gratitude.

Really? Are you really never supposed to experience uncertainty as a leader? You are a human being and hard-wired for struggle – stuff happens. You are comprised of all the good, bad, and ugly that comes with being a

Business Tips By Jill J. Johnson, MBA

Gaining Strategic Clarity When Your Crystal Ball is Cloudy Today’s business climate continues to be exceptionally complex and volatile. Even as we move into this “new normal� environment, we no longer have the luxury of being able to take for granted that shifting trends will be visible or that customer needs will be stable. Now is the time to clarify what is required to ensure your future success.

Take advantage of any emerging opportunities and insights you have gained from your strategic triage efforts. Reassess your strategic investments in all of the assets of your enterprise. Most importantly, shift your focus from a reactive planning mode to one that takes a more proactive planning approach that pivots around your customers and those you want to bring into your sales cycle.

28

OTC Beauty Magazine October 2020

Your Shifting Planning Focus Many leaders are currently experiencing Planning Fatigue. The intensity of operating in a continual planning mode has been stressful and has taken its toll on many leaders. Some are saying it is impossible to keep engaging in strategic planning every three months. They are exhausted.

You do have strategic objectives. These are the overarching goals that you are trying to achieve. The time horizon most organizations use for achieving strategic objectives is typically three years. The reality is you are not actually engaging in strategic planning. Rather, you are engaging in evaluating your strategic execution which focuses on assessing the effectiveness of your tactical implementation.

SELLING SELF-CARE “

These days, the culture is leaning heavily towards self-care. While self-care can be related to our mental and spiritual health, it can also involve a little beauty care, as well.

When customers come in to your store to spoil themselves, consider creating a self-care section to encourage them to buy multiple products that will help towards their relaxation. Here are a few products that are sure to be useful to your shoppers.

adjustments. For me personally, one of those adjustments happens to be about beards! Since masks and beards are not very compatible, you may find yourself facing the decision to cut off some length just like me. I had sported a long, burly beard for quite a few years and finally decided to just take off the length. It was an extremely tough decision to make, but after wearing a mask for six to eight hours a day, it began to leave a ring around my beard. I first used the Andis Cordless Envy® Li Andis Nation Fade clipper for some freehand sculpting, gradually cutting it down in increments until I reached the desired length and shape. This approach ensures you don’t cut off too much. Next, I used the #8 attachment comb to trim down a little more on the sides and cheeks, moving to a #6 and then a #4 to give it a smoother transition at the sideburns and up into my haircut. Finishing with the Andis Cordless T-Outliner®, I gave me a clean line underneath and defined the back ends of my beard. Cordless tools are definitely the way to go, whether for yourself or on a client.

For anyone looking to make that leap to a shorter beard, it’s worth noting that a good cut and shape-up is actually very healthy for it. Change can be good, and can even take years off your appearance. Let’s not let COVID-19 change the beard culture. Instead, let’s learn to adapt and embrace change along with new beard beginnings.

THERAPY TRENDS Unmasking Coronavirus Makeup Sales By Elayne McClaine

No one knows exactly how long the coronavirus pandemic crisis will last. However, we do know it will impact how consumers will protect their hair, face and hands. Mask wearing may be the new norm for the next six to 18 months. Besides stocking up on facial masks, the greatest post-COVID merchandising strategy for OTCs will be makeup crisis management. For those who are concerned about quarantined skin, there will be a need to heighten the use of moisturizers. Social distancing will include protecting skin and makeup from the use of masks. The wearing of masks can create its own Corona facial crisis— a condition called Maskne. This is triggered by pores being blocked by sweat, oil and makeup. If a client gets irritation from skin products or makeup trapped under the skin that’s covered by a mask, they will need to treat this condition with acne-type cleansing products.

To prevent or relieve skin

Any cracked, dry skin can attract coronavirus germs. Your customers will have skincare needs that result from protecting and hydrating skin and looking good while facing the crisis. Wearing makeup during the crisis may unmask a new makeup routine. Waterproof foundation, primers, setting spray and setting powders must be in stock.

BIR Bits NEWS Protective hairstyles—a term used to refer to styles such as braids, weaves, twists, locs and wigs that keep hair free from manipulation—are one of the fastest growing haircare categories among an estimated 80% of Black women* and have become a go-to choice for embracing personal style while encouraging growth and maintaining hair health. Today, however,

with more than one-third of U.S. Black women experiencing thinning around their hairlines, which can be caused by styles

that place too much tension on one’s hair*, UN-RULY and Dark &

Lovely are taking on the task of creating new standards in Black hairstyling practices. (*As estimated through a recent national survey conducted by UN-RULY that aligns with anecdotal evidence from styling professionals and an estimate from a larger L’Oréal

study that surveyed women in Central, South and West Africa.)

The film “Pretty Shouldn’t Hurt: An Overdue Conversation About Protective Styles,” which debuted on YouTube, dives deep into

the evolution of Black hairstyles, and serves as a starting point to

a long-term initiative with Dark & Lovely, which recently launched their Protective Styles Collection to promote healthier-

looking hair during each phase of a protective style. The film shines a light on the potential damaging effects caused by these styles, and offers advice on how to make the styles protective. “We’ve grown up believing ‘the tighter the better’ when it comes to braided hairstyles,” says UN-RULY Co-Founder Antonia Opiah. “As a result, today’s Black women have seen their moms, aunts, grandmas and even friends lose their hairlines. We’re setting out to reduce their rate of hair loss and thinning hairlines by bridging the K.A.P (Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices) gap.”

UN-RULY is enlisting the support of 100 influential players in the Black hairstyling industry, including experts featured in the film—natural hairstyling pioneer Anu Prestonia, Board Certified Dermatologist Crystal Aguh, MD, Celebrity Hairstylist & Trichologist Dr. Kari Williams, and Emmy-nominated celebrity stylist and Dark & Lovely Ambassador Derick Monroe, to get

behind the guidelines set forth in the film. Promoting the importance of proper maintenance makes the partnership with Dark & Lovely so timely. The four products in the brand’s Protective Styles Collection—a tension tamer, hair refresher, cleansing

water and detangling cream—are fortified with aloe vera and mint to relieve, refresh and recover hair from a protective style.

PEOPLE At Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY), Sue Y. Nabi has been appointed CEO, effective September 1, 2020. Peter Harf will be elevated to executive chairman and will work closely with Sue to lead Coty’s transformation. As CEO, Sue will spend considerable

time in Coty’s global business offices in Amsterdam, London, New York and Paris. A recognized global innovator and

beauty industry entrepreneur, Sue is the founder and CEO of the new-age luxury skincare line, Orveda. Previously, she served as worldwide president of both L’Oréal and Lancôme during her

20-year tenure at L’Oréal. “Peter and Coty’s leadership have laid the groundwork to revitalize an iconic beauty business,” says Sue. “I am inspired and energized by the opportunity to lead the global Coty team into the future, as we build the new, more modern Coty.” After having championed

the diversity of beauty and beauty marketing in L’Oréal, she was named the youngest president Sue Y. Nabi

in the company’s history. She followed that with her revival of Lancôme, which resulted in double-

digit growth in makeup and skin care. Sue resigned from L’Oréal in 2013 and began a new life in

London. A shift in lifestyle and a personal health journey inspired the launch with Nicholas Vu in 2017 of the clean, vegan, ultra-luxury skin-care brand Orveda. Visit coty.com.

Product Spotlight

Brittny Combo & Hair Cutter Combo There are foundational tools that every stylist should have on

hand: a rat tail comb, a pin tail comb and a haircutter comb. Each is

highly important for hair professionals and should always be kept in inventory. Luckily, Brittny has packaged a set of these essentials as an easy grab-and-go item.

Rat Tail combs are perfect for sectioning but are even better for detangling.

The Pin Tail comb is great for sectioning and creating precise, straight parting lines.

The hair cutter is the tool to use for cutting and layering weaves or extensions. It’s also a great way to thin out thick hair.

Encourage your shoppers to take advantage of this unique set rather than buying each tool separately. Not only will they save more, but they’ll also find the set to be useful and convenient.
